"The more that you read, the more things you will know,
the more that you'll learn, the more places you'll go."

This week was so much fun! In Math we reviewed adding and subtracting larger numbers. We practiced regrouping and learned how to subtract across zeros. In Social Studies we began studying the continents. We got into groups of 2 and 3 and picked a continent to study. We began researching and taking notes on our continent with our group. Once our research is finished, we are going to teach the class about what we learned. In Writing, we continued using the third grade checklist to help us edit our Narratives. We also talked about good leads and made sure the beginning of our story was interesting, and included information about the setting and the characters. This week Miss Saburro started a new read aloud, "Gooseberry Park". It is awesome so far! We are studying the characters through the story and summarizing the chapters in writing after we read. During Literacy Stations, we started our guided reading groups with Miss Saburro. It was a great week!
